Food noise.
That nonstop mental chatter about food that can feel impossible to shut off.
In this episode of Sick of Pricks, I’m talking about what food noise actually is, why so many people with type 2 diabetes struggle with it, and why it’s about so much more than “just use more willpower.”
We’re getting into:
• constantly thinking about food
• guilt and shame around eating
• the binge/restrict cycle
• diet culture and how it makes food obsession worse
• why blood sugar swings, restriction, and stress can all crank food noise up
• GLP-1 medications and why so many people describe the noise finally getting quieter
• practical ways to start finding more peace around food
Most importantly, we’re talking about this without shame.
Because if you’ve ever felt like food takes up way too much space in your brain, you are definitely not alone.
